 the original

It occurs to me that someone might want to try this technique.
With the caveat that everyone changes things around and no two will ever be alike,
here are the steps I happen to use right now.

This is an "Action" that I preserved and goes something like below. I'm not
particularly good at actions and it took a while to reconstruct it, with luck,
accurately:

1 Duplicate current image
2 Flip Horizontal
3 blending mode: Multiply
4 Flatten
5 Duplicate current image
6 Flip vertical
7 blending mode: Multiply
8 blending mode: Difference
9 Flatten

You can use the steps on the whole image, or select out parts of it (like the geometrics with the black borders) You can change the blending modes, or any part of the above for more strange and interesting results.

What a great geometric abstract, with bold colours and clean, crisp lines. You'd never think it was connected to that original.

Reminds me of Origami. Very original and creative!

I'm going to have to try that... I wonder how it would work with something that's moving... very fun.

Holy cow, this is SWEET! How did you get the sharp geometry out of that soft original? Inquiring minds want to know!

Sharp! LOL! It looks like it could slice right through something.
